NEET 2017 Results: Friendship knows no bounds as two friends secure AIR 2 and 3 in the recently declared NEET results

23 June, 2017: What could be the best news than your best friend getting an All-India top ranking? Make that two! Archit Gupta and Manish Mulchandani who hail from Indore are the best of friends and have secured an AIR of 2nd and 3rd respectively for themselves in the recently released National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) 2017 Results. Couldn't get any better right? Standing alongside your best friend and sharing the joy.

Both the friends decided that they needed each other to push themselves hence they enrolled themselves in a hostel rather than staying at home and even joined the same coaching classes.

Archit spoke to HT and said, “I am from Indore but I decided to live in the hostel to maintain my concentration. I didn’t follow any schedule to study. I used to pick any book according to my wish and started studying. I kept my focus on my weak points and converted it into my strength.”

In a months time, Archit, 17, will be flying to London to represent India in the Bio Olympiad which is scheduled on July 23.

Manish, 17, who also spoke to HTsaid, “Archit and I always compete with each other, but it is a healthy competition and it helped us both in scoring well. I am happy that my hard work paid off today.”
